Joining forces with @AHAScience #HTISFRN and #DOTHF collaborative network, we're delving into the challenges of outpatient management for HFrEF. Our latest viewpoint in @JAHA_AHA #JAHASpotlight explores how #digitalhealth can boost patient engagement, elevating care quality and enhancing outcomes. #DigitalHealth #PatientEngagement #CardioTwitter #Medtwitter @StanfordMed @StanfordCVI @StanfordDeptMed @StanfordCDH ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JA…

Read about current barriers in the outpatient management of HFrEF and explore approaches by which digital technology-enabled patient engagement can enhance quality of care and improve outcomes. #AHAJournals #JAHASpotlight #Viewpoint @ZahraaziziMD @ATSandhu ahajrnls.org/3U877cn

First systematic review on #digitalhealth interventions for #US #rural residents with #heartfailure shows improved self-care and knowledge. However, research still needed on clinical outcomes and healthcare resource use. Hats off to @cassbroadwin for outstanding leadership, and a big thanks to @ATSandhu and @FaRodriguezMD for their invaluable mentorship. #CardioTwitter #medtwitter @AHAScience @JAHA_AHA #JAHASpotlight @StanfordDeptMed @StanfordCVI @StanfordMed @StanfordCDH ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/JA…

@poyanmehr @hswapnil @GrahamAbra @kidney_boy @HumphreysLab Agreed, + passive income from dialysis units. But the higher income is all geared towards dialysis. Not every nephrologist wants to do mostly dialysis. Like you said, to achieve the income that HD generates, you have to work a lot in the inpatient/outpatient setting.

It’s complicated. Some may say nephrology has the easiest earned RVUs due to dialysis. If your chief makes you earn your RVU from outpatient CKD care, you will burn out. If you make your RVUs from outpatient dialysis, you will be the envy of CC colleagues. There are attempts to change this perverse incentive

@poyanmehr @hswapnil @GrahamAbra @kidney_boy @HumphreysLab As a last thought, in my humble opinion, in most situations, the money-to-workload ratio is the main problem. Many other factors are at play. But that's the main one.

@poyanmehr @hswapnil @GrahamAbra @kidney_boy @HumphreysLab I believe nephrology has one of the lowest compensation per wRVU? I'm ignorant in this space. Just giving my personal experience. 3/3
